Thus, the rising adoption in developed countries is expected to create opportunities for the global electric power steering system market during the forecast period.
An electric power steering comprises multiple components and subsystems, such as the motor, reduction gear, torque sensor, and a module that collects and sends out information, among others. The operational cost of electric power steering system depends on various factors such as advanced technology and vehicle type. The working operations of electric power steering system are expensive owing to the high investment and repair & maintenance costs involved in the generation of advanced technology. The costs associated with the design, development, and manufacturing of such components is higher than alternatives such as steering by wire system, rear wheel steering and hydraulic steering system. Additionally, the sensors used in steering, also adds cost to overall steering system which is not affordable for financially average people. Furthermore, the components and materials used in the driver assistance technology systems must be selected as per international standards such as the American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) and Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE). This leads to an increase in the cost of high-quality raw materials and components used in the manufacturing of electric power steering systems. All these factors are expected to add to the cost of the electric power steering system.
Therefore, the high cost forms a restraint to the growth of the global electric power steering system market during the forecast period. Additionally, the complex product design and higher manufacturing cost of electric power steering system systems than the alternative systems are acting as a barrier for new market players.

Parker-Hannifin is the world's largest pure-play motion-and-control technology company, combining eight interconnected core technologies — hydraulics, pneumatics, electromechanical, filtration, fluid and gas handling, process control, engineered materials and climate control — across two reportable segments: Diversified Industrial (67% of FY2026 sales) and Aerospace Systems (33%). The company sells hundreds of thousands of part numbers, none above 1% of sales, through OEM channels and a global distributor network serving several hundred thousand customer locations. Its decentralized operating model is run through "The Win Strategy™ 3.0", a business system credited with lifting adjusted segment operating margin from 22.3% (FY2022) to a record 27.3% (FY2026). Portfolio transformation — CLARCOR (2017), LORD and Exotic Metals (2019), Meggitt (2022), Curtis (2025), Filtration Group (2026) and the pending CIRCOR Aerospace deal — has shifted the mix toward aerospace, aftermarket and longer-cycle, higher-margin revenue. Management targets 30% adjusted segment margins by FY2031. --- ### What the company does — company description In its FY2026 Form 10-K, Parker describes itself as a global leader in motion and control technologies that uses a combination of interconnected technologies to design, manufacture and provide aftermarket support for highly engineered solutions, principally for aerospace and defense, in-plant and industrial equipment, transportation, off-highway, energy, and HVAC and refrigeration markets. The company emphasizes a decentralized operating structure intended to deepen customer relationships and team-member engagement, governed by The Win Strategy (goals: Engaged People, Customer Experience, Profitable Growth, Financial Performance) and anchored by the purpose statement "Enabling Engineering Breakthroughs that Lead to a Better Tomorrow". [Filing: FY2026 10-K, Item 1] ### Reportable segments and market verticals [Filing: FY2026 10-K] ### Business and revenue model **Product vs. service vs. subscription vs. licensing mix.** Parker's revenue is overwhelmingly product revenue, recognized mostly at a point in time on shipment; a portion (largely aerospace development and long-production contracts) is recognized over time using cost-to-cost, efforts-expended or units-of-delivery methods [Filing: FY2026 10-K, Critical Accounting Policies]. The company does not disclose a numeric product/service/subscription/licensing split — not publicly disclosed. Repair, overhaul and spares in Aerospace Systems function as a service-like aftermarket annuity, and distributor-channel replacement parts in Diversified Industrial play the same role, but the aggregate aftermarket percentage for Parker as a whole is not disclosed in the filings reviewed. Disclosed indicators of aftermarket intensity include: Filtration Group derives ~85% of its sales from aftermarket replacement, and the deal lifts Parker Filtration's aftermarket share by ~500 bps [Filing: FGC press release, 11 Nov 2025]; Aerospace FY2026 Q3 aftermarket sales grew 14% with commercial OEM up 22% [Filing: Q3 FY2026 release]. **Value-chain position.** Parker is a Tier-1/Tier-2 component and subsystem supplier. In aerospace, it holds sole-source positions on airframe and engine programs (flight control, fuel, hydraulic, braking, thermal, inerting and fire-protection systems) from which it earns decades of follow-on spares and repair revenue. In industrial markets, it supplies engineered components (fittings, hose, valves, pumps, seals, filters, actuators, controls) into OEM equipment and services the installed base through distributors. **Customer types.** OEMs (aircraft and engine makers, machinery, truck, agricultural, construction, semiconductor-equipment, HVAC/R and energy-equipment builders), airlines and MRO providers, defense agencies and primes (including the U.S. government, which brings ITAR, EAR and CMMC obligations), and independent distributors. No single product exceeds 1% of sales [Filing]. **Pricing.** Management describes value-based pricing ("priced by the value they deliver") as a strategic objective [Filing: FY2026 10-K MD&A]. List-price or contract-pricing models are not publicly disclosed. ### Independent characterization Parker is best understood as a compounder of engineered-component franchises that uses a common operating system (Win Strategy, lean, Simple-by-Design, high-performance teams, "local-for-local" supply) to raise margins of acquired businesses. Since FY2022, three structural shifts are visible in the numbers: (1) aerospace mix has risen from 15.9% of sales (FY2022) to 32.8% (FY2026), with Aerospace now the highest-margin segment (26.0% reported, 29.9% adjusted); (2) margin step-change — total adjusted segment operating margin up 500 bps in four years; and (3) cash generation — FCF margin up from 13.9% to 18.2%. The FY2027 portfolio (with Filtration Group, Curtis and, if closed, CIRCOR Aerospace) will be more aftermarket-weighted and less exposed to the short-cycle North American industrial base that drove three years of flat-to-negative organic growth in FY2024–FY2025.
